Thanks so much for your donation! Connie donated too :) You didn't both need to! I really appreciate the support.

We miss you on the team this year. There are a lot of new faces, but I haven't made it to as many FitCorp runs as I'd hoped. I am definitely training harder though. I'm in much better shape this year than I was last year I think.

How is everything? I told Connie that you guys shouldn't hesitate to call me if you're in the area. I work in a glaucoma lab just a few blocks from MEEI and can grab lunch or a drink most days.

I hope the kids are doing well and that the awesome work that's happening at MEEI is affecting them as well.

Hi...sending you a June Vote (100 Impact Points) and wishing you the very best on your fundraising and hoping your Project is a huge success . "One small act of kindness can send a ripple thru the Universe."...(My Project CURE EPILEPSY)

We wanted to see if you're in the neighborhood to bring PURE JOY to a very deserving child's life... A $20 donation will provide a birthday celebration and cake for one of our 25 students- an experience they have NEVER HAD in their life. Can you imagine never getting to celebrate your special day and not ever eating a piece of cake in your entire life? Well, either can us, so we want to change that for our extremely hard working students!

Donate $20 to provide the once in a lifetime memory for one of our students, and we'll provide you a picture of the event- something you can cherish forever as well :)

Chris,
Thank you for your donation, but you really shouldn't have! I've already made my goal and I know how it feels having that hanging over your head. I wanted to donate to you because I was really inspired by your dedication and motivation. I know you'll have a great race and make your goal!
Peggy

CROWDRISING SINCE: Jan 16, 2012

Stuff About Me:

I'm a one-legged runner. I've run half-marathons from Cape Cod to the Cascades, the Falmouth Road Race a dozen times, and countless other races. I've also carried the Olympic Torch over the Charles River during its run prior to the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Games. My father was a collegiate football player with asthma (this was a big deal back in the forties). Both my kids are visually impaired artists. So doing these counter-intuitive activities runs in the family, but of the three generations, my kids have the biggest challenge by far.

And so, I need help with funding for a cure for Retinitis Pigmentosa. Please give to the Massachusetts Eye & Ear Infirmary with a donation through my page.
